Early in our Solar System’s history, bits of icy debris were scattered and then gradually coaxed into a spiral alignment in ...
In a groundbreaking discovery, NASA's Pleiades supercomputer has revealed an unexpected spiral structure within the inner ...
"We found that some comets in the inner Oort cloud form a long-lasting spiral structure." Spirals are a repeating theme in ...
Using a NASA supercomputer to run models, researchers led by SwRI astronomer David Nesvorny now believe that the Inner Oort cloud looks like a spiral disk, around 0.24 light-years across, with two ...
The Oort cloud is a shell of icy objects that forms the very outskirts of our Solar System. Recently, a group of researchers ...

Even the little-understood Oort Cloud, at the outer edges of our solar system beyond view, has a partly spiral structure.
Groundbreaking research reveals the Oort Cloud's shape as a spiral structure, challenging traditional beliefs about its random collection. NASA's Plei ...
A comet called ATLAS dazzled the southern skies for the last few weeks. Now it's heading out of view for half a million years ...
One million alien visitors from another star system could already be lurking in the solar system. We aren't talking about ...
But what the Oort cloud actually looks like and how it is affected by forces greater than just our solar system has remained somewhat of a mystery. A new paper posted to the arXiv preprint server ...
Interstellar material has been discovered in our solar system, but researchers continue to hunt for where it came from and ...
